Are raised enzymes dangerous?

Causes of Raised cardiac enzymes and chest pain?

• My husband had chest pain for 2 weeks ago it lasted about 3 days. He was admitted because his cardiac enzymes levels were elevated at a 1.34 then it went to 9.28 then they went back down to 1.34. His heart rate is low also going from 54 to 39. They did a heart catheriization and the doctors said that his heart looked healthy. They released him. They said they dont know why he had the chest pain and raised cardiac enzymes. They said they think it was a muscle spasms. But now here we are 2 weeks later and he had the chest pain again and so he was admitted again and his enzymes are high still they tested the enzymes 2 times so far , the nurse told me the cardiac enzymes are higher than they were higher than ever before. he has a slow heart rate. they are still monitoring him but its like they dont know what is going on with him.I dont want them to send him home again without a cause especially it has only been two weeks and he is back in the hospital.Has anyone ever had this situation happen to them.

• Answer:

  His chest pains are caused by pinched muscles in the back. The back muscles often send the pains around the body on the nerves to become pains in the rib, chest or heart areas. Pinched muscles don't show up on scans or tests so pains like this go undiagnosed. Pinched back muscles can also press onto the nerves, as they leave the spine, going to the organs. That pressure will make the organs act up or go into pain. I don't know where the enzymes they are talking about are stored but this pressure can be causing the release of them by that organ. What is interesting is that pinched muscles usually raise the heart rate and bp, but your husbands goes down. I wonder if there is pressure on the nerves going to the heart which might cause something like that. Anyway, to get rid of the chest pain he has to free up the muscles in his back and here's how to do that: Back: (do from a sitting position) Place your left hand on your left leg next to your body. Place your right hand over your left shoulder, fingers over the back and the palm in the front and firmly pull down on them and hold. After 30 seconds slowly lower your body forward and to the outside of your left leg, keeping your left arm fairly straight as you do. When you reach your lap remain there for another 10 seconds, release the pressure but rest there for another 30 seconds. Then reverse your hand positions and do your right side. For best results relax the body first by taking a deep breath and exhaling then remain this relaxed. Hope this helps you out and gets him home and out of pain quickly. good luck.
